2015 Charity Banquet

April 24, 2015

Capitol Hilton1001 16th St NWWashington, DC 20036

Reception - 5:30pm - Congressional Room

Dinner - 7:00pm - Presidential Ballroom

The Oregon State Society's annual banquet brings a little bit of Oregon to Washington, D.C. The generous donations of our sponsors, through sustaining memberships and gift donations, allow us to bring hundreds of Oregonians and friends of Oregon together for an evening to socialize and participate in a raffle and silent auction to support an Oregon charity.

This year's charity is SMART

SMART (Start Making A Reader Today) is a program that engages community volunteers to read one-on-one with PreK through third-grade children who need reading support. Participating children also receive new books each month to keep and read with their families. SMART currently operates programs in 27 of Oregon’s 36 counties and has served more than 160,000 Oregon students.
